What Are Connection Credits on Alignable?

Connection credits are the currency you use on Alignable to send connection requests to other members. Each outbound request uses one credit — accepting or ignoring an incoming request does not.

How Do Connection Credits Work?

The number of credits you receive each month depends on your membership plan. Credits do not roll over from month to month — any unused credits expire at the end of your billing period. All members receive a fresh set of credits at the start of each new billing cycle.

Why Does Alignable Limit Connection Credits?

Members who find the most success on Alignable are those who send connection requests strategically and thoughtfully. Credit limits are in place to encourage quality over quantity — to help you make the most of every connection you form rather than collecting contacts you never talk to.

You should only send a connection request if you want to form a genuine relationship with that member. Once connected, you can see more of their profile and message back and forth. The real value comes from nurturing that connection into something more — a referral, a collaboration, a warm introduction to someone in their network.

Please do not send connection requests as a way to pitch your products or services. Not everyone needs what you offer — but if you build a real relationship, the people they know just might. A warm introduction built on trust is far more valuable than a cold pitch.
